SatDreamer360: Multiview-Consistent Generation of Ground-Level Scenes from Satellite Imagery

Generating multiview-consistent 360^circ ground-level scenes from satellite imagery is a challenging task with broad applications in simulation, autonomous navigation, and digital twin cities. Existing approaches primarily focus on synthesizing individual ground-view panoramas, often relying on auxiliary inputs like height maps or handcrafted projections, and struggle to produce multiview consistent sequences. In this paper, we propose SatDreamer360, a framework that generates geometrically consistent multi-view ground-level panoramas from a single satellite image, given a predefined pose trajectory. To address the large viewpoint discrepancy between ground and satellite images, we adopt a triplane representation to encode scene features and design a ray-based pixel attention mechanism that retrieves view-specific features from the triplane. To maintain multi-frame consistency, we introduce a panoramic epipolar-constrained attention module that aligns features across frames based on known relative poses. To support the evaluation, we introduce VIGOR++, a large-scale dataset for generating multi-view ground panoramas from a satellite image, by augmenting the original VIGOR dataset with more ground-view images and their pose annotations. Experiments show that SatDreamer360 outperforms existing methods in both satellite-to-ground alignment and multiview consistency.
